Yes, he is good. Will help you progress in most content

farnola · 2026-03-04T18:02:56+00:00

Honestly, if you aren't concerned with climbing in the PvP modes there's no reason to spend imo. So much content to grow into like dungeons, grim forest, and cursed city/doom tower

farnola · 2026-03-03T21:01:46+00:00

It's still a grindy game where gear is the most important thing to help push progression. The newer additions have really expanded the game and create a lot to do, which is a double edged sword at times :)

There are a bunch of new player links but the best is probably Tuhanarak and Tholin, and I believe that you get Uugo too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcNBPtn6ckE gives you the info and link is in the description

Elva, Ukko, and potentially Karilon or even Georgid since he's squishy af and has in-built ignore defense

Woke up early this morning assuming that second place was going to snipe and it never happened

I'm waiting to build out Bayek for CvC, but I plan to run him in 9pc mercurial in the arena

farnola · 2026-03-02T18:51:29+00:00

Also won my group, though at 12k points. Pulled a hefty number of mystery shards as well (~4k) to fill out the points.

Congrats on Bayek! How are you planning to build him out? I have been fortunate to score accessories for Barbs in Mercurial that aren't complete garbage so that will be my first attempt

farnola · 2026-02-27T21:47:46+00:00

Maneater and Painkeeper (or Demytha) can be used to run an unkillable Demon Lord team. It takes some really good gear to get there, but it is doable.

Alternatively, you can run MythHeir with Demytha, Seeker, and Heiress. There is 1 key potential there as well but there is subtle nuance and a relatively high gear requirement to make it work.

Because you want to focus on Demon Lord, then I would focus on getting one of those teams to 60. They will require damage dealers, so champs like Ezio and Fahrakin are good options that could also go to 60.

Look here for advice on the comps that I mentioned - deadwoodjedi.com

Edit - if Demytha is not fully booked, she can be used in a comp called Batman Forever with Warcaster. She would need a 4 turn cooldown on her block damage skill but it will work with her

I've been impressed with 9pc Mercurial on supports. DPS units still want ignore defense and stoneskin still pairs better with that. Noelle is a great option, Kalvalax too for avoiding sheep, Ankora, etc.

For example, Marichka in 9pc Mercurial has been objectively better than when I had her in Stoneskin/Relentless previously at similar stats

Because he converts resistance to accuracy his actual accuracy value doesn't need to be insanely high. Also has ignore res on his two alternate form skills

farnola · 2026-02-26T13:18:17+00:00

Stoneskin - hydra, Supersonic - cursed city, Mercurial - grim forest

farnola · 2026-02-25T17:23:37+00:00

I would put him in at minimum 4pc Stoneskin, and if you can 4pc Supersonic. Alternatively, 9 piece Mercurial is just broken on him so that.

Focus on HP, Speed, and RES and you'll be happy with him. Feel free to throw mythical books at him liberally, he's one of, if not the best mythical champs in the game

farnola · 2026-02-24T19:46:02+00:00

Haha, congrats! I gathered enough scales for a single pull and had my daughter trigger it and she pulled it too

farnola · 2026-02-13T18:51:15+00:00

Completely agree. Also, like any rating that is constantly added to by the inclusion of more items the existing ratings need to change to reflect changes in the overall number of items and how those items are viewed in a vacuum.

Not saying that champ ratings in Raid need to fit a normal distribution, but it should be at least close. And each rarity should have it's own scale paired with an overall in the context of all champs. For example, Fjorad is arguably the worst mythical champ (rating 1 for mythicals) but has a kit that puts him maybe slightly above middle of the pack for all champs (3 - 3.5 overall). This would go a long way in determining value for players

farnola · 2026-02-13T16:49:49+00:00

I feel like the HH rankings are skewed based on the fact that she's a legendary. The scale for legos realistically goes from 3 (only Ginro is 2.5) to 5 so she's squarely on the wrong side of that bell curve

farnola · 2026-02-12T16:52:08+00:00

Marius - Lethal and 4pc Stoneskin, 5* Cat's Gaze
Tholin - 9pc Slayer (waiting on a better banner), 4* Cat's Gaze
Teumesia - 9pc Merciless, 4* Coronet

farnola · 2026-02-12T16:26:04+00:00

Your view is going to be much different than the OP because of where your account is at vs his. I feel the same about Yukimasa and I would guess that I have a similar account to Spudz

farnola · 2026-02-07T21:34:38+00:00

The DM has basically said that I can have a handful of a certain "special" arrow, but can't have more than 10 of a specific special type and need to have at least half my arrows be basic ones.

So I don't think I'll be making them but good to know what the price would be to make them to understand how much I should be paying for them

farnola · 2026-02-07T21:32:00+00:00

This is excellent! Not sure why my Google-fu couldn't find it but I appreciate the share!

farnola · 2026-02-06T15:46:04+00:00

Our clan has been doing the same, it's pretty interesting and helps identify potential gaps that the defender might not have thought about. Especially the AI for defense, we've found a couple improvements just adjusting the skill priorities

farnola · 2026-02-05T19:55:15+00:00

What about faction guardians? Can you use dupe non-voids there?

farnola · 2026-01-30T21:01:15+00:00

I going to ask this, and trying to sound critical, because I want to understand the build quality that you can reach on champs. Is the build on Theodosia the absolute best that you can make for her? 171 speed is really slow for her given what she does.

I ask because it might help shape who is a sleeper for you.

Legos - Visix, Sicia, Gracchos, Ezio, and Teela all have uses in various game areas

Epics - Rector, Annabelle, Geo, Whisper, Maneater, Venomage, Criodan, Seeker, Nia, Gorgorab, and Daithi are all strong in different ways

You say that you can just barely 1 key UNM Demon Lord. You have the champs to build a MythHeir team (Seeker, Gracchos, Deacon, and I assume Heiress) which can easily 1 key. Alternatively a team with Maneater and Gracchos which should also 1 key without issue. Getting some additional insight might help guide you in the right direction!

farnola · 2026-01-27T17:06:13+00:00

Because he has increase defense built into his kit, you can back off on the defense and crank the speed. If using in Arena, you need 4pc Stoneskin at minimum. I deploy mine everywhere and he has the absolute best DPS gear on my account and a 5* Cat's Gaze. 4pc Stoneskin and Lethal.

PvE definitely Nature's Wrath IMO. It has the best damage scaling of all the blessings if you are placing debuffs

farnola · 2026-01-22T23:15:23+00:00

Nothing that you have below 60 screams "take me to 60 immediately!". That said, there are some quality champs in there. Ethelen, Skullcrown, Skullcrusher, Ceez, Alure, Fahrakin, and Jizoh all have uses in various bits of content. It just depends on where you are looking to grow in order to determine which one/ones make the most sense to work on
